We’re well into Black History Month, when white people love to quote the softballs from MLK. Which is fine. It’s palatable.
But in order to create real change, we have to get uncomfortable.
Example. Assata Shakur was vilified, and remains a concern for white folks. But she was a victim. Systemic racism wrote her story.
This counters the narrative:

Assata Shakur remained active in the revolutionary struggle until the end of her life.
She joined the Black Panther Party at a young age, where she provided support in the form of medical care and food supplies to neighbourhoods.
Eventually, she also joined the Black Liberation Army in the armed struggle against capitalism.
As a revolutionary woman, she also fought against patriarchal tendencies within the Black Panther Party and recognised masculinity as a threat to the realisation of socialism.
Determined and conscious of her cause, she endured solitary confinement until her release and spent the rest of her life in Cuba. She passed away in September last year.
Come to our lecture to learn more about her struggle and her life.

Bis zum zum Ende ihres Lebens blieb Assata Shakur im revolutionären Kampf aktiv.
Sie trat in jungen Jahren der Black Panther Party bei, wo sie Unterstützung bei der medizinischen Versorgung und Lebensmittelversorgung von Nachbarschaften leistete.
Schließlich schloss sie sich auch der Black Liberation Army im bewaffneten Kampf gegen den Kapitalismus an.
Als revolutionäre Frau kämpfte sie auch gegen patriarchale Tendenzen innerhalb der Black Panther Party und erkannte Männlichkeit als Bedrohung für die Verwirklichung des Sozialismus.
Entschlossen und sich ihrer Sache bewusst, ertrug sie bis zu ihrer Befreiung ihre Einzelhaft, und verbrachte den Rest ihres Lebens in Kuba. Sie verstarb im September letzten Jahres.
Kommt zu unserem Vortrag, um mehr über ihren Kampf und ihr Leben zu erfahren.

"People have to be aware of how the media manipulates the way we think. Because they have really created a situation where all the US government has to do is say that such-and-such a government is terrorist, and they can wipe people off the map! The language that is being used in the media today is incredible." – #AssataShakur #BlackHistory

“Every day out in the streets now, I remind myself that black people in amerika are oppressed. It's necessary that I do that. People get used to anything. The less you think about your oppression, the more your tolerance for it grows. After a while, people just think oppression is the normal state of things. But to become free, you have to be accurately aware of being a slave.”

‘She Died Free’: Tributes Pour In for Revolutionary Icon Assata Shakur
“They wanted her bound, broken, and paraded as an example, but instead, she slipped their grip and lived out her life in exile, surrounded by people who honored her struggle and her survival,” said one admirer.
[A symbol of defiance and steadfastness.
This article has some information on the shootout in the 1970's when she was framed up for murder.]from #CommonDreams

Sep 27, 2025#AssataShakur, a #Black #revolutionary who inspired generations of activists to struggle for a better world, passed away on Thursday in Havana, Cuba, where she had lived in exile from the #US for over four decades.
#Cuba’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced her death on Friday, saying it was caused by a combination of “health conditions and advanced age.” She was reportedly 78 years old.

Earlier this year, as they do every year since 1979, the state of New Jersey posted a $2M bounty on Assata Shakur's head as their most wanted person.
The US continues to this day to jail several elderly and dying Black Liberation activists of Assata's generation, she was one of the free living heroes of that era and I'm glad she got to experience freedom (albeit outside of America) for most of it.
